ENGLISH
CHOICE OF WATER
• To fill the water tank use regular tap wa-
ter. If the water is hard then it is recom-
mended to mix it with distilled water at a
ratio of 1:1, if the water is very hard, mix it
with distilled water at a ratio of 1:2 or use
only distilled water.
Note:
Do not fill the water tank (10) with
scented liquids, vinegar, starch solu-
tions, descaling reagents, chemical
substances etc.
FILLING THE WATER TANK
Make sure that the iron is disconnected
from electrical power before filling it with
water.
• Set the constant steam supply handle
(3) to the middle position “steam supply
off”.
•
Open the water tank lid (2).
•
Fill it with water. Close the lid (2).
Note:
• Do not fill it with water above MAX. in-
dication.
• If you need to refill the water tank
during ironing, turn off the iron and
unplug the power cord from the out-
let.
• After you finish ironing, open the wa-
ter tank lid (2) and drain the remain-
ing water.
IRONING TEMPERATURE
Before operating test the heated iron on
the old cloth to be sure that the iron sole
(13) and the water tank (10) are clean.
• Always check the recommended iron
temperature indicated on the tag before
ironing.
• If the tag does not list the recommended
ironing temperature, but you know the
type of fabric, then use the following
table to determine the proper tempera-
ture.
Signs Fabric type (temperature)
•
Synthetics, nylon, acryl, polyester (low
temperature)
••
Silk/wool (medium temperature)
••• Cotton/flax (high temperature)
• This table is only for smooth materials.
Fabrics of other types (crimped, raised
etc.) are best ironed at low temperature.
• First sort items by ironing temperature:
wool with wool, cotton with cotton etc.
• The iron heats up faster than is cools
down. For this reason it is recommended
to begin ironing at low temperature (for
instance synthetic fabrics). After that,
move to higher temperature ironing.
Cotton and linens should be ironed last.
• If an item is made from a mix of fabrics,
then the iron should be set for the fab-
ric with the lowest ironing (for instance if
an item is made from 60% polyester and
40% cotton, it should be ironed at the
temperature used for ironing polyester
“•”).
• If you cannot define the fabric the item is
made from, find a place on it that is hid-
den while wearing and, on practice select
the ironing temperature (always start at
the lowest and gradually raise it until you
get the desired result.)
• Corduroy and other fabrics that start
glossy quickly should be ironed strictly in
one direction (along the lines) with slight
pressure.
• To avoid appearance of glossy spots on
the synthetic and silk fabrics, iron them
back-side.
SETTING THE IRONING TEMPERATURE
• Place the iron on the base (8).
• Insert the power plug into the outlet
.
•
Set the temperature regulator (11) to the
required ironing temperature
: “•”, “••”,
“•••” or “MAX” (
depending on the type
of fabric
), the (9) indicator will light up.
• When the sole temperature (13) reaches
the desired temperature value, the (9) in-
dicator will go out, you can start ironing.
